Same, went in blind, only because so many people were hyped for it. And I can see why, it was a lot of fun. Though, I agree that they are oddly chill about the MC’s sister considered she is on an unknown clock to being digested and unable to be revived.

Like, is there timer measured in weeks? months? years? That’s awfully long.

Your list of anime tells me are into adventure anime or with heavy action.

First thing I thought of was Katanagatari, where our heroes go on a journey to collect 12 legendary swords.

Something with heavy action: Black Lagoon- businessman gets abandoned on a pirate island and joins them

something more adult: Vinland Saga- viking epic following a young boy on a quest for revenge

I assume she’s going to stay an assassin after this arc, but I wonder how they’ll make it happen without her explicitly saying something like, “I love killing people too much to quit”. Either way I’m happy we are finally getting a Yor focused arc, she felt too much like a secondary character throughout season 1.

Injury And Despondence Set The Stage For Heroism… Or Cowardice.
You haven’t lost yet, since you got up.

No kidding, these main evils make everyone not Gojo out to be chumps. How he jumped between both Nanami and Naobito, both rank 1s, like they didn’t matter and took them out in one move.

If you can get the mod of anime@lemmy.ml to cross promote, then it should not be too bad to move the episode discussion to a different instance, since lemmy users can join both communities and get posts from both. It won’t be flawless or without difficulties to make such a move, but I think people will go out of convenience.

That’s really unfortunate that this happened. Are they planning on moving your posts to a different instance, like lemmy.world, or will they try to get people to come to ani.social for the episode interaction with Shinobu bot?

And thus the great rice quest ends. Though it feels kinda lazy that this fantasy world just happens to have all the same crops as the real world. I hope there’s an actual link between worlds that explains this and its supposed to be a clue to the audience.

Helck out there just casually punching calamities to death his first time fighting. The time he spent as a mercenary was cute, but a lot of the details on Cless fighting the demon lord seemed sus. I don’t trust any of the others that made it back unharmed.

This was cute, but I’m not sure where it’s going. Are the powers and alien stuff real? Cause the answer to that will inform where the story goes.

Yeah, but she’s harassing her bully. So technically it’s Claire’s fault she’s in this mess.

| feel like a decent compromise would be to have the bot stop posting if no one is engaging with the posts (maybe 2 posts in a row with no/low engagement means the bot drops the show?

I like this idea, cause it feels more organic than putting a hard limit on any show. Every show deserves a chance to have someone be watching it and discussing it instead of just the popular stuff. And this same setting scales up easily if the discussion posts take off here compared to limiting discussion to just the top 15-20 shows others have mentioned.

Plus it also works if a show is overhyped and people drop it like ep4, then the system would stop posting at Ep6 due to lack of discussion.

Impressive that Anya defeated a real villain all on her own and scared him into quitting crime. She’s got a bright future that one.

Heiter said that he had quit drinking, so Fern did not get to see him like that at least. Which is how she seems him in a positive light. Unlike how Frieren remembers Heiter being, at least from their traveling days.

Yeah, that was an interesting idea. Which gives us the new backstory plot point of who made him, and also what happened that he was abandoned and lost his memories.

Chise just snapping that creature’s neck was unexpectedly brutal. And it was interesting to see what weapons everyone else created, Philomela with the tiny knife, fitting for an assassin, Zoe with a trusty spear, great for beginners, and then there’s Lucy with a stick, really Lucy? couldn’t even make a proper weapon?

Yeah, I feel like Helck having already awakened as a hero from very young and not remembering is a plot point for later. Specially with the whole thing about the crown inducing artificial awakenings in the population.

Makes me think that town was maybe a testing ground for hero awakenings and was attacked on purpose to see if any of them took. Which is likely how Cless was also able to became a hero. Something that I feel would normally not happen.

Yeah, it took me a while to like the manga when I first started it, because of her obsessiveness.

I’m really happy with the adaptation so far. I love the manga, and this looks like it will be true to the source. It looks like they are covering roughly 2 chapters per episode covering up to ch8. Ep1- covered ch1 and first half of 2 Ep2- rest of ch2 and 3 Ep3- ch4/5 Ep4- ch6/7/8 - Even if ch8 was squeezed into the last 4 minutes of the episode, everything flowed well.

I was wondering how they would so the multiple episodic adventures between large arcs, but if they can squeeze in 3 at a time every once in a while, this anime should be able to adapt a fair bit. I wonder if they intend to cover up to ch36, before the second big arc. Since I see Sein is in the opening, which I would not have expected season 1 to get to.

Is this original content, or adapting a novel?
